NEGRO PREACHER SLAIN,
HE TALKED WITH A JEALOUS HUs-
BANDS BETTER HALF.
Joe Dixon Surprises His Wife in Con-
versatlon with James Upton, and
Uses Knife on the Latter with Dead
ly Effect

A few minutes after 4 O'Clock yesterday
afternoon a telephone message was received
at police headquarters conveying the in
formation that n man had been killed at
Vance and fernando streets. Sergeant Of
Police Hedrick, accompanied by an AP-
PEAL reporter, at once started for the
scene, and arriving there found the streets
and sidewalks blockaded with people.
Pushing his way through the surging mass
Of humanity, the reporter reached the
curbing, and there, lying in pool Of
blood on the sidewalk, in front Of the drug
store Of Mortimer Saunders, was the body
OF negro man in the throes OF death. DIR.
l.. a, Nicely was at his side and doing all
in his power TO stay the blood that flowed
from two ugly knife wounds in his back.
But his work was Of no avail, and in few
minutes the man expired. tt...
Upon investigation il was learned that
the dead man II name was James Upton,
n preacher, Of Nashville, but who has OF
late resided at or near Marion, Ark After
Upton had brcathcd his Last, the police set
To work Ia ascertain the name OF the man
who did the killing II was soon learned
that II was Joe Dixon, n negro barber
working at IA colored barber shop on Had.
den avenue. A search was instituted for
him, but he was not 10 bc found. His
wife was seen, but she denied all knowl-
edge Of his whereabouts, and refused 10
talk about the killing, saying she knew
nothing about ii, though il is said she saw
II all.
The facts, 30 far as could be learned, are
that late yesterday evening Dixon saw Tip
ton talking 30 his wife on DcSOt0 street,
near Elliott. He walked up 10 the pair,
and after II few words pulled out u knife
aud plunged IL into 1pton's back. The
latter broke and ran down the street, close
ly pursued by Dixon, who caught up with
him and again drove the blade into
his back. lilo would havc continued his
assault, but Upton escaped nv taking re-

seemingly satisfied with his bloody work,

DR.. Nicely stated that the upper cut was
below the shoulder blade and the lowest
just about over the rgion Of the liver,
which caused internal hcmorrhage. Soon
after his death Deputy Coroner Barry held
an inquest. There was only one witness,

An Unjust Proceeding.

Uuder the above head the Times
Review announces that the trustees of
the Tuscsrora schools have passed an
order to dismiss the teacher of the pri-
mary department., Miss Lille Hender-
son, without preferring any charges
agniust her. Miss Henderson has had
charge of the department in which sue
is at present engaged since September
!, 1885, and so far as we know has
given general satisfaction. It is true
thnt there has at times been some
little complaint as to her management
and wa would like to know where a
teacher can be found that gives universal
satisfaction, but AS n general rule an in
vestigation proved these slight charges
without permanent found .tion.
As to her reputation ms n teacher the
Times. Review says. "Miss Henderson
hns met with gratifying success in her
department of the school. She has q
large number of pupils, and all are
making excellent progress i'll their
studies. Combining the capacity for
maintaining discipline with the art of
imparting instruction., she commands
the respect of parents, and the children
speak in the highest terms of her
school"
1t is true that our school law gives
trustees wide margin in the exercise
of authority when it provides that
Trustees may dismiss any teacher, AT
any time, Tor such reasons IA they deem
sufficient" but this law certainly does
not contemplate clothing trustees with
authority to dismiss teacher without
any cause, and we think it would he IN
act of justice, if the teacher is not Civ
ing satisfaction, to present specific
changes and grant her hearing that
these charges might BE- sustained or
reiuted. We trust, in the interest of ed.
ucation, that this matter MY be ami.
cubly and satisfactory settled without
endangering the harmony and efi-
cheney OF the school.
